Ho then proceeded to a report of progress (In a partial way), telling the AFL forum that these conclusions have been reached: 1. That the major nations and the law-abiding states should create an International organiza tion to. enforce peace and securi ty. 2. That each nation subscrib ing to the program, and In due course all nations, should pledge not to use force except within the framework of the organization. 3. That each of the major na tions and any others agreed upon should accept special responsi bility for backing Up the pro gram. READ these three conclusions carefully. Then sludy your OWN reactions. Having done so, this Is probably what you'll find: That you'll WANT TO KNOW MORE. You'll be almost certain, for example, to want to know WHAT KIND of International organiza tion is going to be created (with US In lt and HOW peace and security are to be ENFORCED. THIS is the point: The only way you can find out what you want to know is to ASK QUESTIONS and to have your questions answered by some one who knows. That, In substance, Is what Is known as the process of Informa tion and debute. It Is the process, and practically the only process, by which the people of democrati cally governed countries can be come adequately Informed as to the things they are being COM MITTED TO hy those who arc in charge of framing our foreign policy and making the agree ments with other nations hy which our foreign policy Is to be carried out . of the UTMOST lniKrliince: if (he people of the United Stall's are not kept Informed of the progress of the negotiations leading up to the agreements with other nations by which W E are to be bound, they will In- like ly to make their doubts and un certainties known In such a way that the SENATE OK THE UNITED STATES will not ratify (he treaty or treaties In which these agreements are Included. That happened niter the last war. It can easily happen again. It will be LIKELY to happen If our leaders are as secretive about our present foreign policy as President Wilson was about his league of nations. ASSISTANT SKC'liETAItY OK STATE LONG, II seems to this wilier. Is making a very great contribution to the proper Information of the American people when he goes before pub lic bodies such as the postwar forum of the American Federa tion of I jitntr and tells publicly whal Is being done In (he way of framing an American foreign oolicy uud wht thifc policy wlil OREGON NEEOS CORDON By Charles "IN our determination to give everything that we are and "have to the winning of the war, we are apt to minimize the gravity of purely domestic civil problems," declares United States Senator Guy. Cordon of Roseburg in an article appearing in the current issue of The Comity Officer, offi cial publication of the National Association of County Offi cials. Senator (Cordon's reference to domestic civil prob lems artjcuWIy cpJnteW 'around federal ownership of lands. ', ' if', federal! ownership were! evenly distributed throughout the counties of the United States, he points out, the matter would "be far , more simple, but 90 per cent of the ownership is in the eleven western states. , "The land policy of the United States has changed sharply within ihe last decade," Senator Cordon says in the maga zine article. "The old policy of transmission to private own ership as rapidly as possible by homestead and otherwise, has given way to a policy of permanent federal ownership and land management, to which has been added an ambitious program for additional land acquisition. Much of the land is now being managed in competition with private ownership. It would seem that in view of the unequal distribution of these vast federal holdings, of the fact that they are being managed competitively with private lands, and of the fur ther fact that there is no longer hope that they will ever go into private ownership and so become a part of the local government's tax base, there can no longer be any valid ar gument in opposition to the providing for a fair and reasonable annual payment in lieu of taxes to the counties wherein the lands are located, or wherein they are to be acquired." ' ': Cordon's position on the public land problem is clearly stat ed in one of his closing paragraphs, in which he says: "If the people of the United States business, as would now seem to be the case, it is clear that some plan must be evolved which will provide for an equit able annual payment to local government in lieu of tax loss on these properties, which will be adequate in amount and certain in time of'paymont, so as to be integrated with private .property taxation. Otherwise, local government must face a continual shrinking in its tax base, which can ultimately extinguish it entirely."' The enormity of the situation to which Senator Cordon is calling public attention, is shown in the fact that the federal government owns 20 per cent, or more than four hundred million, of the two billion acres comprising the continental United States. Ninety per cent of this federal ownership is in the eleven western states. Thus it may be seen that these states are most vitally concerned in future legislation which will equalize the tax load between private and federal interests. As the senator points out, a solution must be found to the problem or local government will bo entirely extinguished by an overburden of taxation. There perhaps no man in the United Stales more 'fully informed upon this particular condition. Senator Cordon for many years has been engaged in a most intensive study of public land problems. Because of his knowledge and abil ity, ho was for the past 10 years legal counsel for the Asso ciation of Oregon Counties, and has, since its creation, serv ed as general counsel for the Interstate Association of Pub lic Land Counties. He therefore, is jn a position to be of the greatest service to Oregon and to all of the western states in the office to which he was recently appointed, lie fills the place left vacant by the death of Senator Charles L. McNary. The late Senator McNary depended to a large degree upon Mr. Cordon for the factual data and the argu mentation which entered into the public lands legislation which he so aggressively sponsored. Oregon now lias the opportunity to continue in office the one man best qualified to protect this state and neighboring states from the danger which nlready threatens from en croaching federal ownership; a danger which promises to increase, rather than diminish, unless adequate safeguards arc maintained. bo like when it Is framed. His statements will provoke discussion. Out of discussion will come complete information and understanding.
